The amount of fluorine introduced was 20 mmoles. After the completion of the reaction, precipitates were filtered and then the solvent was distilled off. The resultant residue was recrystallized from acetonitrile/diethyl ether to obtain 1.59 g (yield: 70%) of N-fluoro-2,4,6-trimethylpyridinium tetrafluoroborate the physical properties of which are shown in Table 6.
